Kattein, J. "The Architecture Chronicle : diary of an architectural practice." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2009. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/18941/.

Abstract:
Most books on architecture start when a building is completed, carefully editing out any evidence of the design and production process. As a result, architecture is often seen as a product rather than a process. The Architecture Chronicle is about architecture as a practice. It has two parts. The book Blur: the Making of Nothing, by Diller and Scofidio, has informed the format of part one. Blur book reports on the design and construction process of Blur building from initial design ideas to the completion of the building. Part one is a diary reporting on the realisation of five stage sets and

Abstract:
This thesis explores the position of hands-on building practices in architectural education by focusing on METU Summer Construction Practices (ARCH190), which has been conducted in the rural sites of Turkey since 1958. It is believed that the summer construction practice is a tool of education to acquire knowledge of architecture by building 1-to-1 scale constructions. METU Summer Construction Practices are examined by asking the questions of what is learned and how is learned in order to understand both the content and objectives and also the pedagogic strategies, learning methods of the summ

My artistic practice addresses issues of how memory shapes our identity and how to use memory in order to better understand our perspective. Through the construction of liminal space I reflect upon the subconscious and conscious mind. These images address issues of identity and how longing and nostalgia affect the human psyche. Through photographs of sculptures, paintings and light installations I address the architectural spaces in the world around me as catalysts.

After analysing the protocols revealed by twelve experienced architects, the thesis argues that 'scenario-based design' (SBD) is a way of thinking that used by the architects to generate
